AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Transport Fare Pressure: President Irfaan Ali is telling fuel importers and public transport operators to cut profit margins, arguing government already absorbed fuel-tax costs worth over GY$100 billion a year after excise tax on imported refined products was removed—yet commuters still haven’t seen matching fare relief. Enforcement Move: The government also says no fare increases have been approved for minibuses, hire cars, speedboats or airport taxis, warning drivers not to eject passengers over unapproved rates and urging complaints to regulators. Power Disruption: GPL is seeking $8.06M in damages after an excavator hit the L1 transmission line, triggering outages across parts of Demerara and Berbice. Labour Crackdown: Opposition, unions and civic groups are demanding criminal probes after allegations of passport confiscation and abuse of 38 Indian quarry workers at EKAA HRIM in Region Seven. Regional Aid: Guyana has loaned Suriname two high-capacity drainage pumps to help with severe flooding.
